NE <br /> Minneapolis, MN 55413 <br /> Re: Proposed Lot Line Rearrangement Subdivision <br /> 1535-1595 Bohn's Point Road <br /> Dear Mr. Cornelius: <br /> The City of Orono is in receipt of a survey from Gronberg &Associates, Inc. dated November 5, <br /> 2004, depicting a proposed lot line rearrangement between 1535 Bohn's Point Road (PINS 08-117- <br /> 23 44 0014) and 1595 Bohn's Point Road (PINS 08-117-23 44 0015). <br /> The information provided on the survey indicates that each resulting lot will meet the minimum 1.0 acre <br /> lot area and minimum 140' lot width requirements of the LR-1B Single Family Lakeshore Residential <br /> Zoning District. It appears from information available in City files that the proposed transfer of the <br /> triangular parcel will have no negative impacts regarding setbacks or hardcover limits. <br /> Orono Subdivision Code Section 82-2, the definition of"Subdivision", states that "...the adjustment of <br /> a lot line by the relocation of a common boundary as long as each of the two resulting lots meets the <br /> requirements of Chapter 78 (the Zoning Code)" is not considered to be a subdivision, and is not subject <br /> to the formal subdivision process. <br /> My conclusion is that your proposed lot line rearrangement can be approved administratively. The only <br /> issue for further discussion is that in such situations as this, the City nornlally requires that a new <br /> drainage and utility easement be granted 5 feet either side of the new lot line. The City leaves it up to <br /> the affected property owner to request formal vacation of the existing easement. The downside of not <br /> requesting vacation is that the public drainage and utility rights to use that easement remain intact. Since <br /> the existing easement would now be located within your property rather than at its boundary, there is a <br /> potential for disruption of landscaping, etc, should a utility choose to place a line within that easement. <br /> Telephone(952)249-4600 • Fax(952)249-4616 <br /> www.ci.orono.mn.us <br />
